    Washoe Moon, Dorian, Symbiotic: Purple Mist: Strange Novelette Trilogies, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 412min
    This fresh release is the first book in the series Purple Mist - sci-fi/horror novelette trilogies written specifically for audiobooks and e-books, and for binge listening. You'll enjoy a spine tingling, Outer Limits feeling, and a quicker dramatic payoff than with standard-sized novels. Each is a third the size of a full-length novel, and is divided into three parts at memorable plot points, for convenient pauses. They're told in present tense - for immediacy of experience. This unique, entertaining structure is ideal for busy, multitasking lifestyles and Audible app-enabled smartphones or Kindles.  Our first short novel involves a present-day family and their Thanksgiving retreat near Lake Tahoe, Nevada; instead of a warm and fuzzy, they have a rather bizarre and harrowing experience.  Our second story concerns a brilliant young IT man - 40 years in the future - who clicks on a hypertext that none of us would want to click on. Our last features a young, beautiful doctor who practices in a small town in 1919; her cures could be much worse than the disease.  With modern practices of listening to books on convenient devices, it is essential to consider both story and structure/format going forward for maximum listener enjoyment, and this book does. ungekürzt.

    Childish Things
    The Jesus movement of the 70s was a heady time. It was a time of Jesus Christ Superstar and Godspell. It was a time of the Doobie Brothers telling us that "Jesus is Just Alright With Me", and Norman Greenbaum singing about a "Spirit in the Sky". It was a time when Jesus was going to return any day, according to the bestselling book "The Late Great Planet Earth". It was a time of the Rapture, Armageddon, and the Antichrist. Dave Warnock's faith took root during this intoxicating era, and soon he was speaking in tongues, casting out demons, and praying for legs to grow. That raw, emotional faith grew into a mature Christian lifestyle over the next three and a half decades, including pastoral roles on three different church staffs, where the innocence of Dave's early faith evolved into staff meetings, budgets, and carefully planned worship services. Dave's spiritual journey included the sudden loss of friends and loved ones, job losses, and marital struggles. And an increasingly frustrating search for God's involvement. But what if it's not true? What if there's not an active God doing things for His people? What does a man do when he pauses and reflects on a life lived in this kind of faith, and finds, upon examination, that the God he dedicated his life to has never been there?

    7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 596min
    Do you feel trapped in the machine of excess? Jen Hatmaker was. Her friends were. And some might say that our culture is. Jen once considered herself unmotivated by the lure of prosperity, but upon being called "rich" by an undeniably poor child, evidence to the contrary mounted, and a social experiment turned spiritual journey was born. 7 is the true story of how Jen took seven months, identified seven areas of excess, and made seven simple choices to fight back against the modern-day diseases of greed, materialism, and overindulgence. Food. Clothes. Spending. Media. Possessions. Waste. Stress. Jen and her family would spend 30 days on each topic, boiling it down to the number seven. Only eat seven foods, wear seven articles of clothing, and spend money in seven places. Eliminate use of seven media types, give away seven things each day for one month, adopt seven green habits, and observe "seven sacred pauses". So, what's the payoff from living a deeply reduced life? It's the discovery of a greatly increased God - a call toward Christlike simplicity and generosity that transcends a social experiment to become a radically better existence. 7 is funny, raw, and not a guilt trip in the making, so come along and consider what Jesus' version of rich, blessed, and generous might look like in your life. ungekürzt.

    Always Ferrari: The Live Performance Edition , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 83min
    This special "live performance edition" of Steve Matchett's highly acclaimed story, Always Ferrari - a work first published under the Italian title of Sempre Ferrari, in his book of short stories, These Desired Things - is an audio recording sure to delight. The text of the story is delivered as a live performance, with the story divided into three distinct acts, this allowing for timed pauses between the listening of the stanzas. The story itself is a deeply touching tale: Steve Matchett sitting back in a moment of calm reflection, the erstwhile grand prix mechanic, current Formula 1 author and broadcaster recalling some of his many visits to Maranello; those special dinners with friends and former colleagues who have lived and worked in this truly magical place. As with all of Steve Matchett's audiobooks, the author himself performs the work, and does so in fine style too. This theatre style recording will immerse you into the atmosphere of an imagined auditorium setting, with the listener becoming part of the audience. Complete with a post-event Q&A session, with the author fielding questions on the history of the black prancing horse, this audiobook makes the perfect gift for any enthusiast of the legendary Ferrari marque, and for all fans of Steve Matchett's insightful, compelling, beautifully atmospheric writing and narration. An audiobook to enjoy over and over again. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steve Matchett. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/152265/bk_acx0_152265_sample.mp3.

    Timberline U.S.A.: High-Country Encounters from California to Maine , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 496min
    As a youth in Denver, Donald Mace Williams developed an affection for high mountain country. After a journalistic career spent mostly on flat lands, he set out to rediscover what was special about country above timberline. He hiked the high alpine in four of America's major ranges - the Rockies, Sierra Nevada, Cascades, and northern Appalachians - and in his narrative of his travels, he tells us what he saw and learned and who he met. Having visited some of these areas when younger, Williams compares his psychological and physical responses as an older man and how his ideas about how to treat the environment have evolved. A recurring theme is the compromises that people such as he make between the pull of mountains and freedom and the responsibilities of making a living in the lowlands. Mainly, he observes and experiences what is distinctive about the timberline environment. Throughout his book, Williams gently informs listeners regarding timberline history, nature, weather, and archaeology; high altitude physiology; and environmental concerns. Frequently, he recounts encounters with interesting and varied people he meets on the trails: a young British hiking companion who has come back to Colorado to repeat a climb on which, a year previously, his two fellow climbers died. Also meeting a pilot who climbs isolated peaks in the Sierra Nevada in search of bouillon-can scrolls signed by famous early mountaineers; a "Literate Farmer" who pauses on a mountain trail in Vermont to discuss Robert Frost. ungekürzt.

    Whiskey: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 424min
    Whiskey is bitter to swallow and burns pleasantly as it goes down, but has a lasting, powerful effect on listeners. Brothers Andre and Smoker were raised in a cauldron of their parents’ failed marriage and appetite for destruction, and find themselves in the same straits as adults - navigating not only their own marriages, but also their parents’ frequent collision with the law and one another. The family lives in Electric City, Washington, just a few miles south of the Colville Indian Reservation. Fiercely loyal and just plain fierce, they’re bound by a series of darkly comedic and hauntingly violent events: domestic trouble; religious fanaticism; benders punctuated with pauses to dry out that never stick. When a religious zealot takes off with Smoker’s daughter, there’s no question that his brother - who continues doggedly to try and put his life in order - will join him in an attempt to return her. Maybe the venture will break them both beyond repair or maybe it will redeem them. Or perhaps both. Whiskey is an audiobook about two brothers, their parents, and three wrecked marriages, a searching examination of family life at its most distressed - about kinship, failure, enough liquor to get through it all, and ultimately a dark and hard-earned grace. With an authentic literary voice all his own, Bruce Holbert traverses the harsh landscape of America’s northwestern border and finds a family unlike any you’ve met before. ungekürzt.
